Two workers are sliding 390 kg crate across the floor. One worker pushes forward on the crate with a force of 450 N while the ot

her pulls in the same direction with a force of 200 N using a rope connected to the crate. Both forces are horizontal, and the crate slides with a constant speed. What is the crate's coefficient of kinetic friction on the floor?

Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic friction \mu= 0.16989

Explanation:

From Newton's second law

\sum\overset{\rightarrow}{F}=m\cdot\overset{\rightarrow}{a}

If the velocity is constant, that means the summation of all forces must be equal to zero. Draw the free-body diagram to obtain the sums of forces in x and y. It must include the Friction Force, in the opposite direction of the displacement, the weight (W=mg=390*9.81=3825.9N), the Normal Force, which is the is the consequence of Newton's third law and the forces from the two workers.

The sum in y is:

\sum F_{y}=F_{N}-3825.9=0

Solving for the F_{N}:

F_{N}=$ $3825.\,\allowbreak9N

The sum in x is:

\sum F_{x}=450+200-F_{f}=0

Solving for the F_{f}:

$F_{f}=650.0N

The formula of the magnitude of the Friction force is

F_{f}=\mu F_{N}

That means the coefficient of friction is:

\mu=\frac{F_{f}}{F_{N}}=\frac{650.0}{3825.\,\allowbreak9}=\allowbreak0.16989

Need help with 6 , 7 , and 8.

Six.

If you want to double the force, you need to double either v or B. Changing the angle does not give totally predictable results. The formula is

F = q*v*B Sin(theta) altering theta isn't linear. Doubling B is. The answer is A

Seven

Seven is correct. The poles on a magnet is where the field is the strongest.

Eight

I can't really answer this question. Much depends on where you are and whether or not the readings are true or erratic. It is taking only one parameter into account where in reality there are many. My guess would be that as you move up the longitude the angle increases. So the answer would be near but not at the north pole. Seek out your notes for confirmation.

Which of the following would effect the speed of a wave ? A) the matter it travels through
Artemon [7]

Answer:

Option D

The frequency

Explanation:

The speed of wave is depedant only on the wavelength and frequency of waves since it is given by s=fw where s is the speed, f is frequency and w is the wavelength. Since the options given has only one factor, that is frequency, hence option D is correct. In case we had wavelength could be among the options, both would be correct.
